Sorry but price subject to change without notice is standard, its elsewhere that they "explain" unlimited. Other posters have included snippets of the agreements from both Videotron and Bell showing that it means you can be logged on 24 hours a day, but they both put in caveats regarding usage. > Hopefully, his comments will have alerted enough of Bell's potential > customers so that they can look at other providers.
